· 5 FDA decisions to watch for:
o Donanemab from Eli Lilly, if approved, could be a significant Alzheimer's treatment, with Phase 3 trial results showing substantial cognitive and functional decline slowing.
o Resmetirom, an oral thyroid hormone receptor agonist, manufactured by Madrigal Pharmaceuticals showed promise in addressing nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH), a leading cause of liver transplantation.
o Sotatercept, acquired by Merck, is being evaluated for treating pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) based on promising results from the Phase 3 STELLAR trial.
o Lifileucel, in a phase 3 trial for melanoma, is the first tumor-infiltrating lymphocyte (TIL) therapy for advanced melanoma. FDA's decision on lifileucel is expected by mid-February, and it offers potential as a one-time cell therapy for solid tumor cancer.
o Odronextamab, developed by Regeneron Pharmaceuticals, could become the first bispecific antibody approved for both FL and DLBCL, common non-Hodgkin lymphoma subtypes.
